Kek Lok Si Temple is just one of the landmarks located 0.7 mi (1.2 km) from central Kampung Cantik, so you might want to stop by for a few pics during your trip. Hotels.com travelers also say the area is walkable and has lots of nice beaches. It's also full of great shops and restaurants, so you can spend the afternoon having a wander.
Though Hospital Lam Wah Ee might be what brings you to town, perhaps you'll have a chance to explore more of George Town while you are here.
